Re: syslog FreeBSD OpenBSD

I really *really* hate telling fellow users to RTFM, but this is one of those things where the answers are in the manpage...

»www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?quer···mat=html

The problem is that the manpage is not "easy reading", so I'll give you an example from one of my hosts.

At the top of syslog.conf (BEFORE all of the other default directives! It's important that this is done BEFORE -- again, see the manpage for why):

+gw.home.lan
*.*                   /var/log/gw.home.lan
-gw.home.lan

Arlington, VA		 I tried reading the man page and for some reason wasn't grasping it.

I'll give a try off your example.
